I have a Vista Dell xps M1530. I receiced an email to my yahoo account from fake amazon saing my order was successfullycancelled. I clicked on link and realized iit was a scam since it took me to fake ad site. I did a MBAM and spyscan. No malware was found but the spware found and quaranteened several things. Today when I went to boot up, I get the Dell splash open sceen but it goes to the black "failed to start screen". When I try to open with any of the options, it just goes to black screen. I got a blue screen with white writing but it clicked off fast I ried to do a factory restore from the f12 screen but would not advance forward. Tried using the restore disc where you click f12 to open the cd disc, but all it did was say "loading files" and then nothng else.
Any help would be greatly appreciated. Know you guys are probably swamped.
:-)
